Media notes
Begging calls from two young attending an adult that is audibly 'thrashing' wood chips in search of food.
Observation details
This series of recordings was made at close range--at times less than a meter. The two recently fledged young are giving quiet begging calls while attending a feeding adult, which is thrashing in wood chips, very audibly, the entire time. I am assuming this adult is the female, as a male is posted up and occasionally singing nearby. The two young are intermittently doing some thrashing of their own, but also looking over the shoulder of the female--literally. They are watching her work, and she is occasionally feeding them. Specific notes about sounds are in the notes section with the media.
